Opportunities From: Disaster Aid USA

The Pacific Northwest is facing another devastating wildfire disaster. Across Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and neighboring states, massive wildfires continue to threaten communities, forcing more than 60,000 people to evacuate in the Spokane, Washington area alone. Nationwide, 99 large wildfires are burning, with over 4 million acres already burned in the U.S. this year—well above the 10-year average. This isn't the first time Disaster Aid USA has answered the call. Our Idaho and Northwest Response Teams have spent years helping wildfire survivors recover what matters most. After the flames are extinguished, our volunteers help families sift through the ashes to recover treasured belongings, remove burned debris, clear hazardous trees, and prepare properties for rebuilding. We stand beside survivors during the difficult first days of recovery and remain committed throughout the rebuilding process.

Severe flooding across parts of Indiana has impacted communities with high water, damaged homes, debris, downed trees, and disrupted roads and utilities. As floodwaters recede, families may face a difficult cleanup and recovery process, including removing water-damaged materials, clearing debris, and making homes safe again. Disaster Aid USA stands ready to support affected communities with trained volunteers, muck-and-gut teams, chainsaw and debris-removal equipment, volunteer management, and other disaster-response resources, working alongside local organizations and community partners.
